Therapy for Highly Sensitive Persons

Being a highly sensitive person is like having your emotions on turbo mode all the time. It's like cranking up the volume on a speaker that's already too loud. Little things that wouldn't bother others can hit you like a tidal wave. Someone's offhand comment can sting for days, and a sad movie can leave you emotionally wrecked. It's like living life with a built-in emotional amplifier, and it can be intense.

You notice things that most people overlook. It's like having a superpower of observation. You pick up on subtle changes in people's moods or the environment around you. You can sense when something's off, even if no one else seems to notice. It can be a blessing when it comes to connecting with others on a deeper level. People often turn to you for support because you have this uncanny ability to understand and empathize with their struggles.

But let's be real, it's not all rainbows and unicorns. Being highly sensitive can be exhausting. Social situations can be overwhelming, like attending a never-ending party where the noise and energy are just too much to handle. Sometimes you just need to retreat to your cozy cave and recharge your emotional batteries. And don't get me started on how the world's problems can weigh you down. The news, the injustices, the suffering—it can feel like a heavy burden you're carrying on your shoulders. It's like you're constantly absorbing the world's pain, and it can be mentally and emotionally draining.

It's a mixed bag of intense feelings and deep connections, but it can also leave you feeling overwhelmed and in need of some serious downtime. Together we will find ways to embrace your sensitivity while taking care of yourself. We will dig deep to find self-compassion through discussion of thoughts and lived experiences, laughs and heartaches. I will help you discover what it means to live your most rich, full, meaningful life.
